Anticorrosion and biocompatibility of a functionalized layer formed on ZK60 Mg alloy via hydroxyl ion implantation [PDF]
Magnesium and its alloys have aroused tremendous interests because of their promising mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, their excessively fast corrosion rate hinders the development of Mg alloys in the biomedical fields. Inspired by conventional ion implantation, a less-toxic functional group (hydroxyl) is used as the ion source to ...

Mechanical Property Design of Bio-compatible Mg alloys using Machine-Learning Algorithms [PDF]
Magnesium alloys are attractive options for temporary bio-implants because of their biocompatibility, controlled corrosion rate, and similarity to natural bone in terms of stiffness and density. Nevertheless, their low mechanical strength hinders their use as cardiovascular stents and bone substitutes.
